Format line as CSV and write to file pointer

Filesystem Functions

fputcsv

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0)

fputcsv — Format line as CSV and write to file pointer

Description

int fputcsv ( resource $handle , array $fields [, string $delimiter = ',' [, string $enclosure = '"' ]] )

fputcsv() formats a line (passed as a fields array) as CSV and write it (terminated by a newline) to the specified file handle.

Parameters

handle: The file pointer must be valid, and must point to a file successfully opened by fopen() or fsockopen() (and not yet closed by fclose()).
fields: An array of values.
delimiter: The optional delimiter parameter sets the field delimiter (one character only).
enclosure: The optional enclosure parameter sets the field enclosure (one character only).

Return Values

Returns the length of the written string or FALSE on failure.

Examples

Example #1 fputcsv() example

 <?php

$list = array (
    array('aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc', 'dddd'),
    array('123', '456', '789'),
    array('"aaa"', '"bbb"')
);

$fp = fopen('file.csv', 'w');

foreach ($list as $fields) {
    fputcsv($fp, $fields);
}

fclose($fp);
?>

The above example will write the following to file.csv:

 aaa,bbb,ccc,dddd 123,456,789 """aaa""","""bbb"""

Notes

Note: If PHP is not properly recognizing the line endings when reading files either on or created by a Macintosh computer, enabling the auto_detect_line_endings run-time configuration option may help resolve the problem.
